Don’t go near the waterDon’t you think it’s sadWhat’s happened to the waterOur water’s going badOceans, rivers, lakes and streamsHave all been touched by manThe poison floating out to seaNow threatens life on landDon’t go near the waterAin’t it sadWhat’s happened to the waterIt’s going badDon’t go near the waterDon’t go near the waterToothpaste and soap will make our oceans a bubble bathSo let’s avoid an ecological aftermathBeginning with meBeginning with youDon’t go near the waterTo do it any wrongTo be cool with the waterIs the message of this songLet’s all help the waterRight awayDo what we can and ought toLet’s start today
